The Chicken Little thing was started by some of the girls in the competition--not Ryan Clark..err..Kasem...err..whatever his name is. Geek boy understood that. And ddr....Elliott was cleaned up quite a bit from his A) serial killer haircut and B) Beastie Boy hand movements of the early days. I think he's a good kid..and the "pretty enough for idol"..what about Ruben and Clay? Only the girls are pretty. And the pretty boys that have been on the show over the years can't sing very well (Ace and....ummm..can't think of any other mirror preeners). So your last comment holds no weight.

How Come No One Older Than Me Ever Seems To Understand The Things I Wanna To Do?

I agree. The fact that people voted Elliot into the top 3, shows that when it came down to it, the people voted for talent over looks. He had the best voice, but he was just a little too stiff up there. And what were the songs he chose last week? It's hard to really get people to vote for you when they only know 1 out of 3 songs that you sing.
